Allstate Corp.’s time-tested tagline is “You’re in good hands with Allstate.” The insurer’s attorneys have taken this slogan to heart when they they litigate and partner with outside firms. That’s why Allstate wins a spot as a Best Legal Department finalist.

When it comes to handling lawsuits against the company, Allstate takes a backseat to no one. General counsel Michael “Mick” McCabe involves his litigation team intimately in every detail, from attending depositions to crafting closing arguments. McCabe says his in-house team acts as “both the lead partner and the client in every case.”
